Luis Suarez scored twice to help Barcelona to a 4-1 victory over Espanyol in the clash of the Catalans at the Nou Camp. The Uruguayan’s double briefly made him the top scorer in La Liga with 12 goals, until teammate Lionel Messi moved back level with him in the last minute. It also ended Espanyol’s 10-game unbeaten run and edged the Spanish champions to within three points of leaders Real Madrid. Barca had won the last five home meetings with their city neighbours, scoring 19 goals and conceding just one in the process.
Arsenal midfielder Alex Iwobi says the Gunners took their “foot off the gas” in the second half of Sunday’s 2-1 loss to Manchester City. Arsenal led 1-0 at half-time through Theo Walcott’s early goal, but gave up an equaliser just minutes after the break and struggled to recover as City dominated the second half and saw Raheem Sterling net the winner. While Gunners manager Arsene Wenger criticised the officials for what he claimed were two offside goals, Iwobi, 20, admitted that the team lost their intensity after the break. “I guess you could say we took our foot off the…
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has said that he gets better with age — like red wine — and believes he could play at the age of 50. The Manchester United striker, 35, took his tally for the season to 16 goals from 25 games in all competitions when he scored twice in the 2-0 win away against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday. Ibrahimovic told reporters: “The older I get, the better I get, like red wine. You like red wine? I’m a perfect example of that. “I’m settling in. I feel happy, I feel good. Even if I’m 35, in my mind…
Arsene Wenger blasted referee Martin Atkinson after Arsenal’s 2-1 loss at Manchester City on Sunday, saying both City goals should have been disallowed for offside. Arsenal took an early lead through Theo Walcott but wilted in the second half as Leroy Sane equalised and Raheem Sterling netted the winner in the 71st minute. Replays showed Sane may have been offside when he ran on to a pass from David Silva, while Wenger also claimed Silva impeded Petr Cech when he ran in front of him in an offside position as Sterling beat the goalkeeper at his near post. However, replays…
Are Chelsea ever going to drop points again? That’s the question that every other Premier League superpower is asking of Antonio Conte’s side this Christmas. Chelsea are supposed to be in transition, they’re supposed to be finding their feet in a new system. It’s supposed to be a difficult dressing room, full of truculent characters. And yet the points continue to pile up. Will it end soon? Their next two games are at home to Bournemouth and Stoke so…probably not, no. Come on then. Who doubted Zlatan Ibrahimovic? Who thought he was too old and too slow to tear up…
Arsene Wenger was wrong to claim Manchester City benefited from two offside goals in their 2-1 win over Arsenal on Sunday, former officials Keith Hackett and Graham Poll have said. Wenger hit out at referee Martin Atkinson and his assistants after the game, arguing that Leroy Sane was offside before scoring the equaliser and David Silva was distracting Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech when Raheem Sterling scored the winner. The Arsenal boss said: “We conceded two offside goals, which is very difficult to accept in a game of that stature, but — as it is well known — the referees are…
A MultiChoice dealer in Ibadan has made fresh allegations against Seun Egbegbe, and claims that his celebrity ex, Toyin Aimakhu, paid to make the ugly scandal go away. This comes after the movie producer was caught stealing nine iPhones at a shop in Computer Village, Ikeja, Lagos state, last month. According to the dealer who identified himself simply as Semiu, Egbegbe reportedly committed a 3,000 fraud at his MultiChoice outlet in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital. Daily Post reports that Semiu claimed to have met Egbegbe on December 9 at his outlet, two days after it was opened at Uncle…
Maybe, just maybe, Manchester United really are on the way back. A third Premier League win in a week — and 10th unbeaten game in all competitions — suggests a corner is being turned and the manner of this straightforward victory said as much as the result. An in-form West Brom side was dealt with comfortably from the moment Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed United into a fifth-minute lead; his second goal, scored early in the second half, confirmed an efficient evening’s work that contained its moments of sparkle. United could hardly have expected a better start here. Ibrahimovic’s first goal owed…
